About classic Tomb Raider games

[bretonf]

Tomb Raider 1 is my favorite because it feels like a 3D incarnation of the original Prince of Persia.
As some mentioned, the controls are actually super precise compared to modern games. All tiled based. The level design itself is a puzzle, it's all about taking your time and finding how to get through the challenges. Personally I feel those controls are perfect for the design of this game, you just need to rewire your brain to how it works. The fun is the reward for getting through those levels! The action is totally secondary.

I personally can't stand the modern games for this reason because they're mindless action and all moves are very automatized.
